I recently acquired some new equipment and this is the first time, I’ve used CDJs to perform live and I loved it. The new equipment has invigorated the sound production and, I’ve been able to access so much new music, which has been a sheer joy. I feel rejuvenated! I hope you enjoy my new music, plus a few classics thrown in. This is a Deep, Soulful, Funky set, which I hope you’ll enjoy, as much as I enjoyed mixing it.

Equipment:

2 x CDJ-2000 NSX2 & DJM-900 NXS2

Mastering by: DJ Andy JCC

This mix is mainly made up of tracks, produced or remixed by Full Intention. These guys are prolific, producing some amazing tracks and this set consists of a small selection of tracks from 1998 to 2011. This is a vocal, soulful, uplifting set, which includes samples from Chaka Khan, Michael Jackson and Cheryl Lynn. I hope you’ll enjoy this set, as much as I enjoyed mixing it.

The last 2 mins of the set is missing, as there was a system error, which means some of the shout outs weren’t recorded.

Equipment:

2 x Technic 1210 MK2 & DJM-900 NXS 2

On Saturday 17th July 2021, LOCKDOWNFM.LIVE invited me back to do another set. Britain will lift most of its remaining COVID-19 restrictions on July 19th 2021, in what has been dubbed "Freedom Day"

With that in mind, I put together a selection of tracks to help celebrate our collective elation and anxiety. For most, this is LIBERATION, so this mix is for you. Prepare yourselves for those deep, phat rolling bass lines!

Being able to connect with music lovers from home is so amazing. You're no longer alone and you can share your passion.

I’ve recently had some dark days, where I’ve not been able to reach out to my family or my dearest friends. I couldn’t even do the things that make me HAPPY! I couldn’t play or listen to music. This has been a very difficult period for me and I’ve found it so hard to speak out.

As part of my mindfulness, I try do as many things that I can, that make me happy and mixing music certainly does that. I woke up today and realised it was June 21st, the Summer Solstice, the longest day. With such an auspicious day and to make myself happy, I tried to mix a few tracks. Today was a good day … I felt like I was living and breathing this mix. For me, mixing is a deeply spiritual thing, the ultimate connection with music.

Doing this mix today, has somehow helped to defragment my mind. This is one of the best days I’ve had for a long time and Thank you to everyone that reached out to me. 🙏🏾

Sessions. 20 CHELSEA - A TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE

More info https://djerrolrussell.com

Back in July 2020, a good friend asked me to do a mix for her. Chelsea went as far as providing me a playlist, which was most welcomed. I asked Chelsea to summarise this selection of tracks in words and this is what she said.

“All I can think to say is how I wish I could travel back in time. Those were the days when tunes were tunes. Each track takes me straight back to an amazing era and memories. When there was no agenda, no phones, just funky beats and harmony”

Chelsea owns horses and then went on to say “And makes my mucking out go much quicker!”

Chelsea and I hope you like her selection of tracks. Please have a listen, repost / share it, and do leave comments.

This mix celebrates a sense of freedom we all experienced when the UK’s national 🔒 came to an end.

This mix celebrates the highs, I can only imagine we collectively felt, so dance baby, DANCE 💃🕺🏼
